Summary

Birth is an irreplaceable experience in an individual's life, and can have critical health consequences for both the mother and the baby. Healthcare professionals, especially nurses, play an important role in the management, support and education of this process. Nursing students' knowledge and experience about labor is an important factor that affects both their professional development and future patient care.

Traditional education methods may have limited impact on healthcare professionals in learning about the birth process. Instead, the use of virtual reality (VR) technology offers students the opportunity to experience the birth process realistically. In a virtual reality environment, nursing students can understand the physiological stages of birth, its effects on the mother and baby, and the emotional aspects of the birth process more deeply. This has the potential to change traumatic perceptions of the birth process, and can also have an impact on birth preferences.

The perception of traumatic birth is shaped by individuals' negative thoughts and feelings about their birth experiences. These perceptions emerge as an important factor affecting future birth preferences and health care application status beyond the birth process. During nursing education, shaping these perceptions of students and providing them with positive experiences is of critical importance. Experiencing labor with virtual reality can reduce students' negative perceptions of birth and help them make more conscious choices about birth options.
